What does softball stage mean in cooking?

When you cook candies the instructions will often refer to the "soft ball" stage. The "soft ball" stage usually occurs at 235 degrees F. When this temperature is achieved, dip a spoon into the candy and drop some of the candy mixture in a cool/cold glass of water. If it has cooked long enough your candy will form into a ball that is slightly mushy, not hard, this is the "soft ball" stage. If the candy just falls apart in the water it has not yet achieved the "soft ball" stage.
